: Yup, the design just plain bled, and I was not thrilled.
: When I applied the goop thin, it dragged bits of henna out of
place.

: I'm looking (still) for a perfect sealer .... indestructible,

I recently started adding more sugar to my mix than I was before
and this batch and my last I haven't had to put any sealer on. I
just allow it to to dry for at least an hour and I can sleep all

wasn't even a bit of flaking or peeling. The whole design looked as
if I had just put it on. All I use is lime juice, CA henna, sugar
and TT.
